Game 7. It’s do or die. Win or go home. I can’t believe it’s Thursday and I haven’t even thought about UT / Bama. But who cares. The Cards are my first love and I’m consumed.
Scott Rolen, you’re hitting .179 with no RBI in the playoffs. Suck it up, dude. Jeff Suppan has more postseason homers than you do. Time to man up, Scotty.
David Eckstein, you’re hitting .184. You MUST get on base in front of Albert. It’s that simple. Draw a walk, drag a bunt, get hit by a pitch…I don’t care what you have to do. Just. Get. On. Base.
Scott Spiezio…your facial hair disgusts me, but you’re clutch. Mr. RISP. Hope you do it again tonight.
Jimmy Edmonds, if we lose, tonight might be the last time I’ll see you in a Cards uni. That’d be a shame, because you still has plenty of game left in you. I hope this isn’t the end, Jimmy. You’re as clutch as they come. Let’s win tonight and I’ll at least get to see you in four more.
Jeff Suppan, I believe in you. You took the hill in 2004 in the NLCS against the ‘Stros and you got her done. I know because I was there. These are some pics of me & Sunny amid the downtown jubilation after we won to go the Series. Do it again, Soup. I believe.
Oliver Perez, tonight’s starter for the Mets, is going on short rest. He of the 3-13 record and the 6.55 ERA. If we can’t beat this dude, we don’t deserve to win. Pathetic.
Please, please, please, guys. Win it tonight. For me. The off-season is long enough as is. Don’t leave me broken hearted.
Signed,
A die-hard Cards fan.
already & not yet 
I’ll be pulling for them.
Thanks, Jamey. Go Cardinals!
Holy cow! I’m at home catching up on blog reading and watching the game in the background and just saw Chavez rob Rolen and double up Edmonds. Sorry for the Cards, but that was incredible!
I hate Preston Wilson. 0 for 3 with 3 strikeouts.
I hate Oliver Perez.
I REALLY hate Endy Chavez.
I hate Scott Rolen and his throwing errors.
I hate bases loaded and 1 out…
…but I LOVE Jeff Suppan. Go Cards.
Matt, Aaron Heilman looks just like Aldridge.
If I weren’t so emotionally invested, I’d say this was a good game.
I LOVE YADIER MOLINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WHOOOO-HOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
AND YADIER MOLINA GOES YARD TO PUT THE REDBIRDS UP 3-1 IN THE TOP OF THE 9TH!!!!WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!GO CARDS BABY!!!!

THE CARDINALS WIN! GO CRAZY FOLKS, GO CRAZY!! WE’RE GOING TO THE SERIES BABY!!!

You could hear a pin drop at Shea! I love it! Rematch of the ’68 Series!!!!I’m predicting Soup is the MVP. Maybe Yaddy.
You got it, my man! Soup as the MVP… man, what a series performance by that guy. And that silence in Shea was absolutley priceless! Haha… stinkin’ Mets…
That’s a winner!Be sure to check out my post today.I guess in 1968, you were still just a twinkle in your father’s eye.
